[Master, it's been fixed!] Tinkerbell suddenly appeared and told him.
Caleb, who was distracted in the car, asked mentally: 'Are you talking about me getting the skills that came from the system and were given to the girl I sleep with?'
[Exactly! Now, only skills that don't originate from the system can be gained.] She seemed more disappointed than he was.
Well, there was no way around it; he was already expecting this would be fixed.
His only regret was not having had time to buy the [X-Ray Vision] for Marin and gain it through her.
'Tinkerbell, I want to buy the X-Ray Vision.' He said.
[Done!] Tinkerbell replied right away: [It's a great choice, by the way. With this, you can see through walls and know whether or not there are zombies when the apocalypse comes, as well as see if there are beautiful women in a house, hehee~]
The last part seemed to be the real reason she said it was a great choice…
…
Almost 40 minutes after they left, they talked along the way.
"By the way, who's throwing this party?" Caleb asked.
"Oh, it's just some annoying guy named Minoru Ikari. You don't need to pay attention to him." Miku replied with obvious distaste: "He's a spoiled brat who doesn't use his head to do things. He keeps bragging about all the expensive stuff he has, all the time at school."
"Not only that! He also…"
Miku went on telling him about the guy named Minoru. She spoke of him as if he were the most disgusting living being in the world.
Basically, what she said was that Minoru wasn't just spoiled and arrogant; he was also a lecherous idiot who thinks with the lower part of his body.
The only reason he could keep doing what he did was that his father was filthy rich. He ran several businesses around the city.
They owned restaurants, hotels, casinos, and their most successful business: boats and ships.
They had several yachts and ships that they rented out to third parties. They also organized meetings, weddings, or parties on their ships, which were the perfect place for those who wanted to show off to their friends.
Their yachts were also famous, as the city was considered one of the coastal cities. They practically held a monopoly on yachts in the city, earning a huge amount of money every day just from that.
Add to that the hotel and casinos, and Minoru's father was one of the richest people in the city. That's what fueled Minoru's arrogance, who simply couldn't keep his mouth shut about everything he had.
Miku also told Caleb that Minoru hits on every beauty he sees in and out of school, and most people stay away from him when they see him.
"But thankfully, they're only big in this city. The friend who invited us to come with her to this party also comes from a rich and powerful family." Miku said.
They had so much time before arriving at the party that Caleb didn't mind Miku continuing to talk about the people she knew.
"Carol's family is much stronger than Minoru's."
Only when they were close did Yor stop talking. Caleb looked out the window, trying to figure out where the house they were heading to was.
Approaching the area, Caleb saw the party venue with lights on all over the place.
Slowly entering through the already open gate, the first thing Caleb saw was the open space next to the house. There were several cars parked there. He could see some expensive cars here and there.
After finding a spot to park, they walked to the front door. The entire mansion seemed to be made of well-designed wood and stone.
There were only a few people at the entrance, talking among themselves.
Most people were probably inside or in the backyard, as he could hear girls who seemed to be having fun screaming somewhere.
The door was open, and they simply walked in without waiting for anyone to invite them in.
"Yor! I'm here!… Wait for me! Let's go together!" Looking back, they saw a girl with golden blonde hair in a luxury black car waving at them.
After the driver opened the door, the blonde girl got out of the car.
'That must be Carol.' Caleb thought.
Carol has wavy blonde hair that reaches the upper part of her back and bangs swept to the right side, with strands hanging on both sides. She wears a white headband with a pink bow, green eyes, and has a petite body with large, voluptuous breasts.
She wore a tight black dress and walked in front of them, giving Yor and Miku a hug: "You guys really came!"
"Of course, I said we were coming." Miku replied.
"Your hair is so beautiful! Did you do it yourself?" She asked Yor.
"No, it was my little sister who helped me. Look at you. You're so gorgeous in that dress!" Yor said, looking at the stylish dress that perfectly matched her graceful movements, giving her an overall elegant aura.
At first glance, people could tell she came from a distinguished family.
She also didn't hold back on dressing well, wearing expensive jewelry. She had a necklace, a bracelet, and there were also jewels on her dress, designed to perfectly match everything she wore.
"My mom prepared everything for me." Carol replied with a characteristic smile.
'She's pretty hot and cute.' Caleb thought.
[Carol Olston: 10]
'It's pretty low.' He thought while looking at the lust meter.
Not wanting to brag, but since he was quite handsome and now well-dressed, he felt he should have at least 20, but it seemed he was wrong.
HP: [40]
Another thing that caught his attention was her HP, which was double that of an average person. Though not as exaggerated as Yor's, it was still surprising, since she seemed like a very delicate girl.
'Well, you can't judge a book by its cover.' He thought.
"Is he a friend of yours?" Carol asked upon noticing Caleb.
"Yeah, this is Caleb. My sister's 'friend' from school." Yor introduced him, emphasizing the 'friend' part.
She was the one Miku and Yor were talking about, and about whom Caleb already knew so much.
'Actually, it was her.' Caleb thought: 'One of the ten beauties of the school.'
"Caleb? That's a huge change." She seemed to recognize him from school.
Perhaps because she had lived abroad, she came in wanting to hug him.
Caleb didn't refuse and hugged her back.
The thing was… the Sexual Aura was always active, and direct touch was more effective.
It was almost like a dragon's aura, except it could be seen as something more powerful.
[Carol Olston: 22]
A simple hug was enough to raise the lust she felt for him to 22. It was more than double the original value.
When she pulled away, though still with that cute appearance, she seemed to have felt something strange while looking at him unnaturally.
cough
Carol realized she was staring at Caleb, looked around, and saw that Yor and Miku were looking at her with questioning gazes.
"Let's go inside then." Carol acted as if nothing had happened and went in, dragging Miku and Yor with her. Caleb stared at the blonde in front of him.
He remembered everything Miku and Yor had said on the way. They had told him many important things about her.
What they said was that Carol was of British descent and bilingual (a person who speaks two languages fluently), as she spoke English and Japanese fluently.
Upon entering, Caleb realized why he didn't see many people near the entrance. It was because there was an outdoor party.
Most people were in the backyard, enjoying the lively atmosphere while having fun with their group of friends.
There were also people inside the house, but it was mostly just small talk, and they didn't seem familiar with each other.
Most likely, they were either looking for investors or wanting to invest. That's why many people went to this kind of party.
For now, Caleb stayed with Miku while Carol took Yor to meet some acquaintances.
Some time ago, while looking around the place, Caleb took the opportunity to check out the people he saw, one by one.
During this time, Caleb saw the HP of several people, and for most, it didn't even reach 30 HP. The average was 20.
Only a few hundred people were present at the party, so after a few minutes, Caleb finished checking most of the people he could see.
So far, he hadn't seen anyone with more HP than Carol.
